4 Variations on Salsa

1. Pineapple and Red Chile Salsa

When grilling a meal, chef Robert Del Grande of Cafe Annie and Bar Annie in Houston threads ingredients for sauces onto skewers to cook alongside the meat.

2. Tomato Salsa with Cucumber “Chips”

This healthy take on the traditional chips-and-salsa combo is nearly fat-free and super-refreshing.

3. Salsa Picante

This piquant, bright-red blend of dried and fresh chiles has a bracing kick, making it ideal for rich meats like grilled pork chops and beef rib eyes.

4. Red Hot Salsa
